The photographs on this site

Every astrophotograph here was taken and processed by Akash Aggarwal. They are real captures, not renders or stock, and they are shown to demonstrate what the software does.

What you may do without asking

Write about Akastroid and use one of these images alongside, in an article, a review or a video, as long as the credit reads © Akash Aggarwal / Akastroid and the image is not altered beyond resizing or cropping to fit. A link back to this site is appreciated and not required.

What needs a licence

Anything else: printing, selling, merchandise, training a model on them, or using one to advertise something other than Akastroid. Ask, and it is usually a yes on terms we can agree quickly.

Write to hello@akastroid.com with the image you want, where it will appear and for how long. The contact page has the other ways to reach us.

Your own photographs

Nothing here applies to the pictures you process in Akastroid. Those are yours: the software claims no rights over your images, and it does not upload them - see the privacy policy and the licence agreement.
